John Boyega surprised sick kids with toys as Finn from 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'

The "Force Awakens" actor spent Friday dressed in character as
Finn and delivered "Star Wars" toys to children at the Royal
Hospital in London.

Boyega was passing out the toys for the
Rays of Sunshine Children's Charity and was joined
by Daniel Bell, a five-year-old diagnosed with a brain
tumor. Bell's wish was to meet Finn and take toys to the sick
children in the hospital with him.

"I stayed in character while I
was with this brave boy asking him what a car was," Boyega wrote
on Instagram. "He taught Finn about everything earth-related!
Really thankful for the opportunity this child granted me and I'm
just humbled! I hope I played a little part in making you smile
young stormtrooper."

Boyega's Finn and Bell, dressed
as a stormtrooper, were joined by a young girl named Layla, who
was dressed as Rey.

There was also time for a
lightsaber duel, as you can see in the photos below.

Boyega was ecstatic at the chance to grant Bell's
wish, the
Daily Mirror reported.

"When I heard about Daniel's wish to meet Finn, I jumped at
the chance to make it come true," he said. "It was fantastic to
be a part of his very special wish with Rays of Sunshine."

"It was also great to meet the children at the Royal London
Hospital and be a part of something so positive," the British
actor added.

Bell's mom, Rosalind, called the experience
"priceless."

"To see Daniel smile like that without a care in the world
after everything he's been through, knowing how much time and
effort Rays of Sunshine have put in to his wish and that John
Boyega gave his time to make it come true, is priceless," she
said.

She also wrote a
note on Facebook: “Thank you so so much Rays
of Sunshine and John Boyega for granting Daniel’s wish to meet
Finn and take toys to the hospital. It was just amazing, I
have no words! Daniel is still totally overwhelmed, I have never
seen him so happy."
